Pop star Billie Eilish ranted about the Texas abortion law during her set at Austin City Limits music festival on Saturday.
Eilish, 19, told the audience that she almost cancelled the show because she wanted to “punish” the state.
“When they made that shit a law, I almost didn’t want to do the show, because I wanted to punish this f—— place for allowing that to happen here,” Eilish said.
“But then, I remembered you guys are the f—— victims and you deserve everything in the whole world,” Eilish continued

As she let out her angst, the words “Bans Off Our Bodies” flashed on screens around her.
The Texas ‘Heartbeat Act’ went into effect last month and bans abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected — often as early as six weeks into a pregnancy.
“We need to tell them to shut the f— up,” Eilish continued. “My body, my f—— life!”
The teenage singer also declared that anyone who doesn’t share her views on climate change is a “f—— loser.”
“If you don’t think global warming exists, you’re a f—— loser,” she said.
